The project is a joint effort among CCSD, the Clark County Education Association teachers union, ���ӽ紫ý, the Nevada Department of Education and the state’s Education Service Center, which supports public schools from within the governor’s office.

The Lynn Bennett Early Childhood Education Center on the ���ӽ紫ý campus is expanding. They're expected to be completed in the summer with a potential opening in the fall. More children also means more staff, giving more ���ӽ紫ý students an opportunity to work in a field they may want to pursue.

On the eve of the 2023 Service Employees International Union Local 99 strike, Los Angeles Times Columnist Robin Abcarian wrote “I don’t blame the union one bit” and condemned Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho for “just one more slap in the face” after Carvalho “responded to the (strike) vote by comparing the union’s action to a circus.”

At ���ӽ紫ý, which in March formally launched its Institute of Cybersecurity, the two-year Youth Rebel Start Academy within the College of Education, allows high schoolers to earn college credit and gain real-world experience through paid apprenticeships in multiple fields, including IT and cybersecurity. The ���ӽ紫ý Cyber Clinic also offers cybersecurity services at no cost to businesses that may need them, giving participants the chance to develop their skills in a hands-on environment.

“CCSD is proud to join forces with the State of Nevada, CCEA, and ���ӽ紫ý to pilot new ways of increasing student achievement,” said Jhone Ebert, superintendent of the Clark County School District. “Nevada has one of the shortest instructional days in the nation, and by giving our students and staff more time to engage in the learning process we know we will see improved student proficiency.”

Las Vegas is set to host another Super Bowl at Allegiant Stadium, with the NFL naming the city the site of Super Bowl 63 in 2029 — a return that comes on a relatively short timeline by Super Bowl standards.

Despite the budget cuts, CCSD continues hiring special education teachers to fill approximately 140 current vacancies. Ebert said the district is working with ���ӽ紫ý to expand licensing programs for educators wanting to transition into special education.

Should colleges and universities require the SAT/ACT again? More than 2,000 colleges and universities remain test-optional or test-free. The debate on testing continues to evolve as new data points emerge.

Middle school students can expect to take more exams starting next school year, according to a document sent to some Clark County School District principals earlier this month. The exams, scheduled to be administered in mid-December and mid-May, will test students’ knowledge in math, English language arts, science and social studies. The tests can be worth of up 20 percent of a student’s final semester grade in the subject being tested, the document states.

Nevada’s attorney general has signed onto suits on key issues such as immigration, education and the environment. We analyze when he has — and hasn’t — sued.
